pay attention to that, protect the tender plants. monika, over to you. >> thank you so much. if you're trying to figure out what to see at the movies this weekend, try "here comes the boom." kevin james stars as a biology teacher at a failing school trying to raise money to save the music program and save teachers' jobs. so he decides mixed martial arts fighting is the way to go. it also stars selma hijack and henry winkler. also this weekend "seven psychopaths." colin ferrell plays a struggling screen writer who accidentally gets tangled up in a dognapping ring. the only thing is that the scheme was working until they take a mobster's dog. >> yes, they took the wrong dog. bonnie belonged to the very

dangerous woody harrelson character. it's an interesting story. this is very complex. the screen writers are writing a story title called the seven psychopaths. he's working with christopher walkin. he worked with all of them before. the results show. it's very entertaining. >> at first when i thought about this film and i thought about the title, i thought i don't want to see this but i saw some of the previews. it's actually really funny. eight a dark comedy but it's really funny. >> think of it in terms of-- >> if you like taron tino, you'll probably like this. >> a light version of that. >> i'm excited to hear about the next film, the political

thriller that already has oscar buzz. >> kudos to ben afleck. he has shown with his movie when he won the academy award in 1998 for goodwill hunting when he was kind of young, he deserved every inch of that statue. >> we're talking about "argo." >> it's a real suspense thriller about a real life c.i.a. operative. remember when the american embassy was stormed in iran in late 1970's, 1979 to be exact. when all the employees were held captive, six of them made it out the back door and took refuge in the canadian embassy. this is basically -- [ inaudible ] >> the whole idea, there's so many great lines in this movie. my favorite is "it's the best bad idea we could come up with." >> it was so out of the box, it has to work. because who's going to suspect that we're actually trying to

pull this off. tony mendez is an operative. it works out beautifully. 's played by ben afleck. to his credit, while he's directing and also being the star playing tony mendez, he doesn't take over the movie which is a lot of mistakes that a lot of these directors who are famous actors to begin with do. they kind of overplay it and they take over because it's part of the ego. he did not do that. >> the actors he chose, great actors but not necessarily well known. >> you believe it. he actually kidnapped them in his own way. >> he sequestered them. >> and put them in their own confinement so they could see what it was like to be in that strict confinement. you're right, he will probably get some statues or at least be nominated. it's an intlents entertaining -- excellent entertaining film. >> thank so you much. >> thank you. you're watching 9news now at 6:00 a.m. good morning this friday morning. i'm andrea roane. we're thankful for that as we are with a
